Using a PC monitor for XBOX 360?

Just wondering if this is possible. Monitor is an Acer 22 inch widescreenand only has DVI hook up. Is their a way to hook up my XBOX 360 directly to my monitor via an adapter of some kind? I have a VGA to DVI adapter if that helps at all. Really dont want to drop money on a LCD TV. Thanks for the helpUsing a PC monitor for XBOX 360?
I think you'll be able to use the adapter if the DVI port on the monitor is a DVI-I or DVI-A specified port



DVI-A = Analog = Compatible with VGA with no conversion



DVI-I = Analog or Digital = Compatible with VGA with no conversion



DVI-D = Digital = Not compatible with VGA, conversion box needed.



Hope that helps.Using a PC monitor for XBOX 360?
